Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
中规中矩。喜欢多线叙事，反转在意料之中。然后真的很唾弃自己，又嫌弃中国式happyend又喜欢happyend，我真是个传统的种花人，始终相信善有善报恶有恶报。
单舞台电影，本来很喜欢这类，考验剧本和演技，但这几个演员表演还是不太像在正剧，总有喜剧效果。加上国产片又不能黑色结局，感觉很一般。PS.窦骁最后有点像史蒂文元。
挺好的剧情，拍的太松散，有些镜头真没必要。
不知道是否是错觉，某几个镜头的构图很像「寄生虫」（出现在立交桥前后的镜头，忘了是前面还是后面），可能是我片看得少，也许致敬的是其他片。
仿佛盖·里奇电影和《惊世狂花》的拼贴，狭小空间多线叙事诸多人物粉墨登场。如果是导演的处女作，说明宁浩有接班人了
剧作模仿痕迹较重，人物塑造有些敷衍，镜头语言合格，演员没啥问题，6.5。
看了个解说被种草了这部片，但正片感觉还没解说好看，节奏和叙事有点奇怪，bgm也差点意思
可惜了，市场现状是悬疑必须搭上喜剧才能卖。
❷出现一堆小孩的时候，有点震惊了，万万没想到。
蹩脚的的表演，拙劣的模仿，混乱的逻辑，作呕的结局，还可以更差吗？
确实反转和悬疑，也拍得合格，演员们表现也不错。就是不够惊喜，黑色幽默有，只是不够好。巧合利用得好就是好，如何叠加产生剧情需要的冲突和设计，恰如其分表现出来，难哦。窦骁的小怂外卖员和最后的财欲焚心的黑道大佬似的，只能说明，这个男人只是平时怂，一旦有切口什么坏事都是做得出来。缺了一个给自己的借口而已。
被范伟和张颂文吸引来看的，看完后只想套用片中一句台词评价：“破台词，破镜头，破反转，破表演”。
说虚伪点，挺好。说真诚点，真挺好。挺高兴能看到国产黑色幽默电影能有这样的制作水准。有点《夜店》，有点《轻松+愉快》，又有点《疯狂的石头》。金马影帝范伟搭配窦骁张颂文梁超，演技都是在线的选手。剧情上来讲虽然有诸多点还可以仔细斟酌，BUG也不在少数，但整体剧情推进、节奏、剪辑都还不错。尤其摄影要给个加分，悬念制造上也挺高级的。但是老闫那愚蠢的同伙（戴眼镜被关在厕所里的）编剧是不是还可以把他再润色润色，唯一在人设上有点失败的角色。整体三星半。
算是优秀的新人导演作品了吧，再加上滴水不漏的演员表演、（应该是）三一律的剧本，多好啊。每一组的人物故事出来的时候都是不同的惊喜，虽然到最后还是略显为了反转而反转，但胜在逻辑通顺，看完还都蛮算酣畅。
2.5 硬凑的痕迹还是挺重的 后半段节奏绷太紧反而给绷散了
近半年了，唯一一部一次看完的国产电影，不是看不下去弃了就是第二天再看。
「不速来客」20211023
国内电影比较少见的叙事方式，完成度还不错，但是剧本经不住细敲
多线性叙事的故事还算完整，但不高级，细节经不起推敲，槽点较多
叙事比较炫技，但是故事内核相对薄弱，有些地方比较刻意，水平不太行，浪费了好演员。
